Lovely lakeside villa with pool on the water’s edge! - Villa Il Gelso
Lovely lakeside villa with beautiful garden and pool on the water’s edge in Lezzeno, Lake Como.
Villa Il Gelso is a wonderful property with a private peaceful garden set on the shoreline, a classic Italian style villa refurbished into a contemporary home (240 m²) sleeping up to 9 guests in 4 ensuite bedrooms and fully air-conditioned:
- The main level includes a living room with couches and TV and a dining area with access to the garden, as well as a fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, and toilet.
- There are two bedrooms on the first and two bedrooms on the second floor, each with an ensuite bathroom and a walk-in shower: two doubles and two twins. The two double bedrooms each have a separate adjacent sitting area with TV and couches, one of which contains a sofabed for an extra guest.
The outdoors is a delightful private oasis (450 m²) along the shores for elegant lakeside Como living, with a green manicured lawn and swimming pool, as well as a pergola with stone table and benches offering panoramic views of the lake. A wide patio adjacent to the house features comfortable outdoor couches for alfresco dining and sunset aperitivos. From the garden, you can reach a pebble beach for a relaxing dip in the lake's waters, as well as a pier (where you can easily get on a private boat trip or rent your own boat for the day; we'll be glad to help you with both options).
Villa Il Gelso is situated in the town of Lezzeno. A water skiing club, boat rental, and a restaurant are all nearby and can be reached by a short walk. Lezzeno is conveniently located just 9 km (15 minutes’ drive) from the famed village of Bellagio, making it easy to enjoy Lake Como's most popular central sightseeing destinations, the Golden Triangle (Bellagio - Varenna - Menaggio). Como (20 km or 30 minutes’ drive) is a lively town with several shops and luxury boutiques, bars and restaurants. The Como rail station provides direct links for an easy and popular day excursion to Milan city center.
